We actually have two favorite items. We are height challenged so one of our favorite items is a collapsible step stool that I bought from ALDIs for less than $5.00. We have two. We use them to help us get our kayaks up onto our TV, use as a foot rest when sitting in our camp chairs, use as...

I bought a dark woven placemat at a thrift store. I attached Velcro to the mat and the fan casing. Easily removed and can vary how tight it is if we want ventilation.

We have the Froli system. I was unhappy when I realized the couch would not stay in the pulled forward mode because the Froli increased the height of the mattress. This summer we removed the first row of the Froli, the row that is under our heads, this allowed us to push the mattress down...

We have noticed that some campgrounds have opened up but they have not opened their restrooms. We understand that decision so not looking to create a debate. Just wondering if anyone has used a portable toilet and shelter so that you could still camp in campgrounds that are choosing to keep...

We use the Coleman cooler with the quilted jacket in the galley. We keep the items that don't require as much cooling in that cooler-vegetables, condiments, etc. In the TV we have a Yeti 65. We don't move the Yeti. I freeze blocks of ice in the mixed nuts containers we get at Costco or...

Thanks for all the suggestions! We are looking forward to the adventure!

Wow! Even if we dont stay at the campground we may have to visit Julian Pie! Thanks for the recommendation!

Our daughter lives in the North Park neighborhood. We don’t really know how far up the coast we will go. We are both retired. Our kids will tell you we are known for not planning (drives them crazy)! It may depend on how the weather is at the time. We have made a commitment to be in San...

Hi! We will be visiting our daughter in San Diego at THanksgiving time. We are looking for a recommendation of campgrounds near San Diego and up the coast. If you have any you have visited please let us know! Thanks!

Thanks, Cary!

I have a question which is somewhat related to this thread. We were able to copy the cabin key but after checking with several places we haven't been able to find a place that can copy the galley key. Did you get another set of keys from Camp Inn or did you find someone that had a blank that...

Kicking horse campground is in Yoho National Park. It is only about 20 minutes from Lake Louise. This was our favorite campground of our trip this summer! The campground does not take reservations so we were able to get a site even though it was the height of the summer camping season during...

Thanks Bear! We usually travel without reservations as well so we aren't tied to a certain number of days in any one area. Just a little nervous about the east coast during the summer. Your comments are reassuring. Barb

Thanks for the information! If it wasn't for the family wedding we would not be traveling to this area during the summer. There is a reason we live in the north - I don't do well in hot and humid! Because of that we were planning on heading for the hills so your comments are helpful. Barb
